[PATCH v2 1/2] ARM: cache: Allow SPL to build cache-pl310.c

Before this commit, the SPL could enable the PL310 L2 cache [1], but the cache maintenance functions from cache-pl310.c were only useable for non-SPL builds.
After enabling the cache one must be able to flush it, too. Thus this commit allows cache-pl310.c to be included in the SPL build.

Enable d-cache early in SPL right after DRAM is started up. This reduces U-Boot proper load time by 650ms when loaded from SPI NOR.

It should be rather direct to migrate this to Kconfig, please do that first, and introduce CONFIG_SPL_SYS_L2_PL310. Thanks!

Hi,
converting CONFIG_SYS_L2_PL310 - no problem. For SYS_PL310_BASE the moveconfig tool just hangs indefinitely on every defconfig that needs conversion. Do you have any hints on this issue?
Below the Kconfig entry, that I used.

Try adding default values for known architectures/socs (use git grep in include/configs/ and sort -u to find out) default 0x1234ab00 if ARCH_FOO default 0x4321cd00 if ARCH_BAR

We can just skip that one for the moment, it's a bit tricky. It shouldn't be asked for as it's not configurable, it needs to be a list of default X if ARCH_Y. Thanks for looking at this one too!
